[IBM] Introducing ‘The Smarter City’

Smart growth can lead to safe neighbours, quality schools, affordable housing and traffic that flows. It’s all possible. This is IBM’s idea of Smarter Cities

According to John Palmer, Director of Communication & Public Affairs of Sheffield Hallam University, “Every city is competing, not just in the UK, but all around the world. Those that are going to come out on tope are those that are smart enough to work together in all the areas where they can gain benefit”.

Is your city ready for the challenges that lie ahead?

In this, the first film, the vision of a Smarter City is introduced. The film centres around the city as a system of systems, with the citizen being at the heart of each of these. It is only when the different city constituents collaborate that this progress will come about.
